Features include a new H-TIRF module that provides autoalignment and autoadjustment of incident angles for optimizing the evanescent field depth. Calibrations can be made independently for each wavelength and experiment, and the settings can be saved and reused.

The new DMD module, for user-defined region-of-interest-based photostimulation, enables multipoint simultaneous photoactivation as well as precision patterning of illumination for optogenetics.

A process that helps optical fibers recover from damage induced by radiation. When silica is irradiated, bonds break and attenuation increases. Light in the fiber assists in recombining the species released by the broken bonds, decreasing attenuation.
